Kirk Endorsed Strongly

10th Congressional District Rep. Mark Kirk is strongly endorsed by the Lake County News-Sun:
Congressman Mark Kirk has been a good public servant with a solid record of achievement for Lake County. We believe he deserves another two-year term in Washington, D.C.

His record since first being elected in 2000 speaks volumes about his constituent services in the 10th Congressional District, and, facing a second challenge from Democrat Dan Seals of Wilmette, his hard work the past two years solidifies in our minds that voters should re-elect him come Nov. 4. Kirk has been a leader and a fighter, when needed, for the 10th District. While a Republican, he has shown an independent streak and not been in lockstep with the Bush administration, as some would have us believe.
His fundraising is also up, indicating significant support in the district.

And where is Dan Seals getting his money? From outside the district in a big way. His top contributor is Rep. Charlie Rangel of New York. Worse, Rangel is under a House Ethics Committee investigation, and Seals refuses to return these tainted contributions. The New York Times has called on Rangel to step down from the House Ways and Means Committee.

Dan Seals, already turning a blind eye to political corruption.

VOTE Mark Kirk on Nov. 4th.
